ONS 2026 in Stavanger

ONS 2026, organised by the ONS Foundation, is a biennial global energy forum in Stavanger, Norway, taking place 24–27 August 2026. For over 50 years, the ONS event has served as a meeting place for governmental representatives, high-ranking politicians, global thinkers, and industry executives, providing a platform for discussion, collaboration, and strategic insight into the rapidly evolving energy landscape.

Today’s energy environment presents unprecedented challenges, including climate change, energy insecurity, geopolitical tensions, inequitable access to energy, and a constantly shifting business landscape. ONS 2026 embraces this pivotal moment under the theme Courage, calling on executives, innovators, thought leaders, businesses, and policymakers worldwide to take bold and decisive action in shaping a sustainable energy future.

The forum offers a comprehensive programme with keynote speeches, panel discussions, technical sessions, networking opportunities, and exhibitions highlighting innovative solutions and emerging technologies. Participants can engage directly with decision-makers, explore global trends, and contribute to shaping strategies for a resilient and sustainable energy sector.

The ONS Foundation operates as a non-profit organisation dedicated to facilitating dialogue and collaboration on energy, geopolitics, and climate issues. The foundation is honoured to operate under the patronage of HM King Harald of Norway.
